I was digging around in the archives and came upon the original thread. Many of the lists were no longer in use, and many new ones were not on. Farmfriend, the FReeper who first started this, is now banned. I felt that an updated version was long overdue. Most of the info I got was from digging through 8-month-old threads, so the purpose of this is mainly to get straightened(sp?) out. If you know for certain that a ping list is missing, or that one on the list is no longer in use, than please tell me. If you know someone else that was doing the work for this (I'm pretty sure no one is) then please tell me that also.
Thanks for the ping, and for starting this topic, very handy, will bookmark.

Please FREEPMAIL me if you want on or off the
"Gods, Graves, Glyphs" PING list or GGG weekly digest
-- Archaeology/Anthropology/Ancient Cultures/Artifacts/Antiquities, etc.
Gods, Graves, Glyphs (alpha order)
Oh yeah, and check out this list:

Rodent Ping list, I used to do it along with farmfriend but since she's banned, guess it's all mine now.
I don't get much chance to ping anymore. Snippy_about_it has the Treadhead ping list now. There used to be a Stryker ping list somebody could take up if they wanted to. It's on my About page.
James Lileks:
Constitution Day
Prayers for him and his family.
Freedom44 runs Cuba ping.

Ever since I got suspended for "keyword abuse" (no profanity) on a ZOT thread (that was pulled not soon after my suspension), I have not maintained a single PING list.
I also had myself removed from the ZOT Ping list because it is nonsense and not worth losing my posting priviledges over.
I brought that to their attention - let's see if it is added next time.
ahem?
And now Asphalt is banned...
bttt
Yep...I think its gonna stick, I didn't get any response to my inquiry...we have to get a permanent replacement, unless something changes...: (
I didn't get a response either. We don't need a replacement for the league, right? just the NFL ping list?
Please tell me.
What is key word abuse?
Ahem! Now 742 PINGEES and counting but you are forgiven my friend since I am already a couple of months in the future of your post.
Thanks again Asphalt for this topic.
I just did a count out of pure curiousity, and found that between the two GGG lists (the individual ping list, and the much smaller weekly digest ping list), and including all four managers, GGG has a total of 497 members. I'm not sure where we stand, but I'm guessing we're pretty far up there.
This is just a request for comments, not a ping per se. Thanks.
oops, here's a more appropriate thread for my query, but this one is far newer. I found the link in Farmfriend's older Ping Lists and Keepers topic.
